Chapter 5 : Alone
Heero laid on his bed. Wide awake and starring. His hands lay beside him in the dark. At the end of the room was a desk and on it was his laptop. The white light casted a shadow on all the items in the room.
"Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep!!!" Heero sat up quicky and scanned his cold eyes toward the screen. He got up. He pulled out the chair and sat upon it. He hit enter on the computer, and read what was on the screen. " Mission 004, distroy millitary base in JERA area of point R on LB." he scrolled down, "Deativate missiles on Lunar Base 009." he closed his lap top, his hand still on top. "Mission Accepted."
He got up from the desk and grabbed his jacket and prceeded out. He walked out of his room and stopped at Duo's door. He opened it. Duo was looking out the window. Heero looked stright ahead, down the hall. "We have a mission" he said coldly and with that he walked away.
Duo turned his attension to the now empty doorway. He got up and walked out, he soon met Heero and Wufei in the hanger.
Heero stood at the base of Zero. He rose himself up into it. Wufei, now inside Nataku popped up on Heero's screen. "You and Duo take care of the JERA area. I will deacitive the Lunar Base." and the screen disapeared. Heero starred stright. "Hn."
Duo rose himslelf up into Deathsythe and led the way out. Soon all three gundams had left the hanger.
Back inside the mansion Varidia was still up in her room. She was laying on her bed, the violet sheets rapped around her. One hand was at her side and the other on her chest. She just thought about Trowa. She didn't understand his actions, or Cathrines for that matter. She let out a sigh and swung her legs to the side. She ran her fingers through her short black hair and got up. She walked over to the door, almost tripping on a stuffed cat. She regained her footing and opened the door. She could hear the somber music of the piano. A beautiful tone flowed from it. "Trowa..." she sighed to herself. She made her way down the stairs, now at the base, she peered into the living room, where she saw Trowa playing the piano. She quickly walked past the room and stepped foot into the dinning room.
She opened the fridge door and glared in. She scanned the deli and the drinks. But there was nothing that suited her fancy. She wanted something, or someone. She shut the door and walked accross the wood floor and opened up the cupboard. Still, nothing. She shut it and sighed. She glanced at the wall, toward the living room. Her eyes dropped. She slowly then made her way out of the dining room and was at the side of the stairway. Her head turned to where Trowa was playing the piano and watched him for about a minuite and turned her head.
Trowa finished the somber tune. His eyes were fixed on the keys. He turned his head to his left where he saw Varidia. She took a step up the stairs. Trowa watched her, "Varidia.." She paused and then watched him. Trowa slowly got up from the piano seat, and the pain crossed his chest once again and he grabbed his acheing ribs. He fell back down into the seat. Varidia gasped and looked down. Dipite how much she was upset, she couldn't just leave him there. If something were to happend there'd be no one to help.
She stepped down and walked over to where Trowa was. "Are you ok?" she asked as she held her hand up to her chest.
"I'm fine." He went to get up again, but the pain caresed him. He sat back down. Varidia put her arm around Trowa, waiting for rejection she helped him up. She swung his left arm around her sholders and walked him over to the couch.
She set him down. ' What now...' she thought as her heart raced. ' What if I skrew up.' She looked at the bandages that covered his lower abdomin. She looked at him, his eyes to the floor. "I'll be right back.." and with that she walked over and into the other room. Trowa watched her leave.
Varidia opened the glass cupboad, she was bare foot and on her toes trying to reach for the first aid kit that Heero had. Her hand searched for it, she touched the top of the kit. Her fingers reached and soon found the handle and pulled it out. She walked over to the table, and set the kit infront of her. She unclasped it and pulled out some large bandage wrap and paper tape. She walked back into the living room. She met Trowa's eyes, she blushed and quickly broke the connection and looked down, still walking forward.
She bent down beside him. Still a hint of blush on her face. "I think that those need to be changed..." she said very timidly and pointed at the bandages around Trowa. He said nothing and then took his hands and started undoing them. He winced as he accidentally touched his side.
"I'll help." Varidia said as she reached in and carfully undid the bandages. She put it behind his back and unwrapped it. As each cloth was removed the blue bruising was getting worse. Still looking down she took the old cloth and set it beside her, evoiding eye contact. She grabbed the new cloth and began to wrap it around him, hoping not to cause the pilot any more pain.
Trowa starred at the top of her head, which was now directly infront of him. "There's nothing going on between me and Cathrine." Varidia rose her head making eye contact with him. Her blue eyes met his emerald ones. Her heart raced and her breathing increased. She broke the stare once again, not able to keep the connection. Trowa took his hand and put it to her chin and rose her face up towards his. Now face to face, he closed the few inches that were between them. She felt his soft lips upon hers. Her eyes widened with suprise and her heart was racing. His hand still on her chin. He broke it by raising his lips off hers. She staired into his green eyes and smiled, "Trowa..". She finshed wrapping him up and starred into his eyes once again, this time with more confidence. She smiled at him. She rose herself of the floor and sat beside him on the couch. "Trowa.... I "
Trowa reached up and caressed the right side of her face, her eyes glared into his once more. They closed the space which had formed between them. Their lips met and she placed her arms around his neck carfully. They both fell into a deep, passionite kiss. Trowa's hand slipped to her waist. Soon they parted and Varidia smiled and whispered. "I've....wanted this for a..." she paused and then looked down, "For a long time".
Trowa looked into her soft blue eyes, "So have I".
She laid her head upon his sholder and couldn't believe that she had just kissed him. Her fanticies were now becomming a realitly. She felt his skin benieth her face her eyes slowly closed. Eventually falling into a deep sleep.
Heero laid on his bed. Wide awake and starring. His hands lay beside him in the dark. At the end of the room was a desk and on it was his laptop. The white light casted a shadow on all the items in the room.
